Arun Jaitley.

Union finance minister and senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley, on Monday, has said that that Lok Sabha election have “virtually become a referendum” on Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said without Modi, “90 per cent speeches of the opposition leaders will be over.”

Just five days before the general election, begins Jaitley in an exclusive interview with Indian Express said, “During the elections, the focus is always on the leader. Even when Vajpayeeji was there — I remember the 1998 and 1999 elections were really Vajpayee elections. We have seen Indiraji’s elections, Rajiv Gandhi’s elections. When dominant personalities are there, the elections get dominated by them. Now, the same question could be asked the other way. Take Modi away and 90 per cent speeches of the opposition leaders will be over. It won’t exist. This election has virtually become a referendum on Modi.”

Jaitley said while responding to a question on the dominating presence of the prime minister in the BJP’s campaign, and the criticism regarding a personality cult.

He further asserted that Modi stands out as a brand for the upcoming Lok Sabha election because of “transformational” changes during the last five years that will prove to be “turning point” for the country.
